    What is Diabetes?

    Symptoms of High Blood Sugar

    • Unusual thirst
    • Frequent urination
    • Fatigue
    • Hunger
    • Blurred vision
    • Dry skin
    • Frequent illness or infection (e.g., yeast infection)
    • Numbness or tingling in hands or feet
    • Unexplained weight loss

    The high blood sugar levels that characterize type 2 diabetes develop so gradually that symptoms often go unnoticed for some time. Anyone who falls into a high risk group - ethnic group or lifestyle - should be aware of these symptoms and should see a physician immediately if symptoms are noticed.
